Valve code 5
Gas
springs which include a valve in the cylinder
base plate are fitted with
screw-on end fittings on
the cylinder end, except the type G 20-40.
On
Tension springs the valve section is on the
piston rod end.
The
valve is normally included in the middle of the
threaded end and is released
by means of a small
pin or nail and a lightweight hammer/mallet.
Light
strokes of the hammer/ mallet should be made,
as prolonged depressing of
the valve will cause too
much nitrogen to escape.
(Caution:
See usage instruction for operating valves.) |
